government rests upon the revenue derived
from the liquor trafiic; while as fact the

thread hangs the prospective prosperity Of
the statNi Now LET us see what II costs Ten
nessee 70 secure this revenue from whisky
In round numbers the State paid s5OOOOO for
the prosecution OF crime IN 1885. The judges
and attorney generals estimate that not less
than three-f ourths OF the crime il caused by
whisky, and consequently you pay 1915 900 70
prosecute the crimes caused by trefIic which
yields you a revenue Of sl50,000. la other
words, the people are burdened with tax OF
$4,000 to support the liquor traffie.
Besides all this Is II not true that the work.
ingmen, the poor men OF the State pay this
tax through the liquor dealer; II you could
deprive the traffic ofthe patronage II receives
from the poor II would destroy tho business.
Now II you remove the liquor do you not
leave him Ia possession OF money by the In
yestment OF which he increases public pros
per.ty and productive industry. The logic
of facts Its Irresistible, and tn facts are that
whenever Prohibition local or general has

does the grand old democratic party with all
her prestige iavoring pure government, rest
her hopes of success upon an unholy alliance

no! Would you accuse such democrats as
Hon. Jno. f. House and Gen. Dibbrell as

An editorial on DR.. McGlynn's excommuni-
cation of yours of the 23d inst. might have
tendency of an unkind and unjust feeling to-
ward the authorities OF the church and Gath
olies in general Ifitbecomes q necessity for
the church to excommunicate any one, 1t is
always after three warnings (often more) and
plenty of time given to appear in selfdefense.
The court of Rome is open to all, and all Is
publicly transacted. A barrister Catholic or
no Catholic, of canonlcal and civil law, can
practice the same as in any other court, and
If one is sincere he need not fear any investi-
ton at Rome. The tribunal of the Catholic
church is considered the most just In the
world. Certainly, the Catholic church can
not allow her priests teaching any unjust
principles, and If fair-minded people give,
this subject any thought or consideration,
will again have a proof that the Catholic
church defends our rights and opposes all
communistic principles. Whether "Jose-
phat Jerusalem James's river!" are invoked,
or whatever bearing they have on the subject,
your conclusion is correct. "What terrible
thing papal bull is" T. e. a bull of excom-
munication. H. JAPEs, Priest.

THE COTTON CROP.
The Yield for 1856 is 6,46O,0O Bales.
Price of seed-Qualfty of Product.

The Yield for 1856 is 6,46O, 900 Bales,
Price of sced-Qualf;y of Product.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The final re-
port of the cotton crop of 1886 shows the
average date of closing the picking
seasoVthe proportion of the crop
marketed on February |, the quality of the
staple, the price of seed and the estimated
production compared with that of 1885.
The close of picking is reported the same
as last year in the Carolinas and Texas,
one day earlier in Mississippi, two days
later in Georgia and Louisiana, four days
in Tennessee and twenty-one days in
Arkansas. The dates are: North Carolina,
December =; South Carolina, November
50; Georgia, December /; 'Florids, No.
vember %; Alabama, December >;
Mississippi, December 8; Louisiana,
December u; Texas, Deem
Der 8; Arkansas, December %;
Tennessee, December 10. The late ma
turing of the crop extended the season
Slightly in q few states. In.Arkansas the
season was heightened by inability to
pick the heavy harvest Serlier. Returns
OF the proportion marketed made the
average TO February |. 1885, ! per cent.
At that date above 100000 bales had
gone from the plantations. This would
indicate crop of about c, 100000 bales,
mere trifie above the November indics-
tons. OF the rate Of yield, the pro-
portion By states is as fellows: North
Carolina, 81; South Carolina, So; Geor-
eia, So; Florida, So; Alabama, 81; Mis-
sissippi, 81; Louisiana, IS; Texas, Sc;
Arkansas, 81; Tennessee, So. The quality
OF the crop is superior. Rarely #
ever have the returns of cleanness
and cotton combined with the length of
staple equaled these just received. The
price of seed is low. Complaint is made
of the combinations Of OIL milIers to re-
duce prices. Renters will sell at any
price, sometimes as low as 5CG8c per
bushel, but the best planters refuse to
sell. The average in Mississippi and
Louisiana is 10 cents, II in Ar
kansas, y in Texas and Tennessee,
Is in South Clrolina, Georgia
and Alabama, 1G in Florida. Feeders of
cattle and sheep vary the highest rates.
The product is larger than last year in
Florida, Tennessee, Arkansas and Texas,
and smaller in the other states. The av-
erage result from q careful analysis OF the
present returns is in the aggregate less
than per cent. lower than that of last
year.

The Washington and Lee Uni
VerSlty.
From the ST. LOUIS Republican,

LEXINGTON, VA, June IL, 1887.
THIS institution. originating in an academy
which antedates the revolutionary war. has
just closed another year of usefulness. Its
very name awakens reverence. especially
when we know that it was not pretentiously
assumed, hut Is justified by the fact that
Washington gave $50 900 to its endowment
and Lee gave to it his personal services as
president the last five years OF his lie. 1t
has a small additional interest to Missourians
in that one oil them, long connected with the
E.. Aull seminary at Lexington, now occu-
pies the chair of moral philosophy and anoth-
er teaches engineering.
There were seven Missouri BOYS enrolled
among its students. All bore a good reputa-
ton. E. G. Vaughan, OF Kansas City. was
cOxswain of t1e Albert Sidney boat crew :;
T.. X. Martin, of the same place, was chosen
president of the final ball; " NJ. Reid, also
from Kansas City. took the medal as the best
e~ssayist; j. Q. Chambers, of Lexington, re-
ceiyed the honorary scholarship in mathe-
mates, and J. Quaries, formerly of the same
place, was graduated in moral philosophy.
Messrs. BiXby Willis and Church White,
both of Kansas City, were distinguished in
their studies.
The closing exercises were of a very inter-
esting character. The weather was delight
full and the pure mountain air was as fresh AS
May. The speeches. both of Students and of
invited orators, were ali up to the standard.
The great attraction of the occasion was Tai
mage, who held the crowd in earnest, pleas
ed attention for a couple of hours to a de-
lightful medley of humor and common
sense.
This is "A good place for young men. The
moral, As well as the physical atmosphere, is
the pure,t. The best families receive the
students as boarders. The standard Is high
The range of studies embraces engineering
aud law as well as the regular academies
The ashes of Lee and SlOnewall jackson

cheeks AMI the bright eyes Of mountain maid
cheer the tedlum of student life. Non

feel that it is equally his school.

might have been taken up after all had been
fed to the full. 1t was a joyous occasion 10
the writer and his companions, and | trust
to all. Notwithstanding the rain. and the
clouds and the wind. Owing to the distance
some of us had to travel TO reach home be-
fore nightfall. we had 10 tear ourselves away
from the scene of so much pleasure at an
early hour in the afternoon. and were thus
unable to hear and speak of the address de-
livered by Rev. W. Pope Yeaman, but from
his well earned fame as an orator, we have
no doubt. that he delighted hi, audience, and
made them wish to hear him again.
The trip 10 the country. along with friends
and brethren beloved, that this occasion
afforded us, will long be remembered. We
had an opportunity of seeing wheat fields
dotted with shocks of harvested grain.
acres growing corn and ripening meadows
and oat fields. and everything that is needed
to sustain man and beast were to be seen on
every hand in vast abundance. Oh. with
what a country and with what people has a
kind Providence blessed Lafayette county,

wondrous manifestation of his love. and
thanks we return to our friends of Odessa
for the cordial welcome they gave us on good
old st, John 3 day in 1887.

New ORLEANS, La, June 26.-The
editors of the New Orleans papers re-
ceived, to-day, the following letter
from Hon. jefferson Davis:
BEAUvOIR, Miss, June 24.-Dear
sir-In your issue OF this morning there
is copied from the Chicago Inter- Ocean
what purporls to be a letter written by
me to Col. Phocian Howard, Danville,
ILL.,, from Beanvoir, Miss, June 20
The letter above described is a bare
faced forgery, The perpetratOr of which
did not qualify himself for his fraudu-
lent purpose by learning from persons
in the neighborhood of Danville, from
which place it appears he wrote, such
facts as might have enabled him to
make his fiction less pilpably incredi-
BILE. Please give tins a place i'll your
next issue, and send a marked copy to
the Inter-Ocean that the imposition
practiced upon it may be exposed
where it was put in circulation. Yours
respectfully. JEFFERSON DAVIS.
Mr.. Davis, in an interview, expressed
very emphaticalIy his Indignation at the
forgery. He never was i'll Danville in
his life, never knew or ever heard OF
Col. Howard. The letter vas not even
a clever forgery, for it did not express
his views, and were views that no in
telIigent man could express who knew
anything of the relations of the state
and federal governments. The troops
in the Union army during the war
were all mustered into the federal ser
vice, and all articles captured by them
became the property of the United
States. From time I o time some OF
these captured flags had been sem
south from the north by Legislatures
and military associations, but the irreg.
ularity had been overlooked, probably
because of the unimportauce of the
matter.
